Finding such discrepancies is critical to the continuity of patient care, as medical records and reports are often utilized across multiple providers and facilities.
With the earth’s warmest March on record in 175 years barely in the rearview mirror, a team of radiology experts says medical imaging must step up its sustainability efforts.
Two advanced algorithms—one for CAC scores and another for segmenting cardiac chamber volumes—outperformed radiologists when assessing low-dose chest CT scans.
Julius Bogdan, vice president and general manager of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Digital Health Advisory Team for North America, explains several key artificial intelligence (AI) trends he sees across healthcare.
Authors of the new EJR paper explained that, although most of these tumors present in a similar way—with a lump or localized pain—their origins are wide-ranging and require the use of additional imaging to characterize the lesion.
True positive rates of COVID pneumonia on chest CT are significantly lower in patients who are vaccinated against the virus in comparison to their unvaccinated peers.
Two advanced algorithms—one for CAC scores and another for segmenting cardiac chamber volumes—outperformed radiologists when assessing low-dose chest CT scans.
Raquel Roman, chair of the Radiology Business Management Association (RBMA) Young Professionals Committee, and director of growth at Essential Radiology, explains how the group mentors the next generation leaders.
![Advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models can evaluate cardiovascular risk in routine chest CT scans without contrast, according to new research published in Nature Communications.[1] In fact, the authors noted, the AI approach may be more effective at identifying issues than relying on guidance from radiologists.
